New AirPods continue to flash white and will not pair. Does not show up on the Bluetooth list of devices.

I have a new AirPods. They are completely charged. They continue to blink white but will not pair. They do not show up on the Bluetooth device list. iPhone 13 is updated and I’ve had the AirPods in and out of the case several times to try and reset them

AirPods Pro blinking white but not connecting I updated the the latest IOS overnight. This morning, my AirPods Pro would not link to my iPhone. They do not appear in the list of Bluetooth connections. I have reset them. However, when I open the case it blinks white but no animation shows on the iPhone. It doesn’t show in Bluetooth. I have tried the trick of removing and replacing single pods but nothing happens. Any clues/tips/tricks? Thanks

Apple AirPods (2nd Gen) Flashing green and not pairing Hi Please assist. I have 2nd gen AirPods. The right stopped working, so I watched a few YouTube videos and they most recommended that I reset them. After I reset them and I also removed them from my 'Bluetooth' and 'Find My' history, they didn't want to pair. I've charged them the whole night and they still don't want to pair. They just flash the green light. When I hold the back button, it just shows the white light and doesn't flash. I've tried to see if other devices can pair with them but they're not even picking up at all. I've already upgraded the software on my iPhone 13, and also reset all the network settings and nothing is happening. I've tried pairing other people's AirPods and my phone connected to them without any issues. I've tried everything I came across and wasn't successful. Please help. Thanks

When I press and hold the setup button on my airpods it goes immediately white, no amber and no flashing I have been having constant issues with the sound on my airpods only coming out of one airpod, even when fully charged. I decided to reset them i.e. "Forget device" and try to pair them again with my iphone. Unfortunately the iphone does not detect the airpods so I cannot seem to pair them again

If you tried all the steps in:

then your best option may be to make an appointment at the Genius Bar in an Apple Store near you and let them look at it. If that is not possible, use the online Apple Support option. Either way:
